Saved so much time cooking and the meat so tender

This is my first electric pressure cooker and I could not be more than pleasantly surprised. I was expecting it to be as loud as my conventional pressure cooker. This was quiet until I release the pressure but still not as loud. I also find the 30 minute timer on the pressure cooker mode to be very handy as sometimes, my meat get too tender they break apart just on stirring.

The pressure cooker is also versatile, I have used it as a rice cooker, slow cooker and steamer. It also has a keep warm feature which is very handy for me a when I cook our dinner earlier than normal. I have found this to be very convenient. I have yet to try the other features but so far, I am impressed and would find myself cooking with it all the time.

The pressure cooker came with an instruction manual that has a few handy recipes in them, a paddle, measuring cup and a steamer rack. The lid has a very sturdy look to it with nice easy to grip handles. There is also the dials for pressure cooking and quick release of pressure. The lid is also very easy to secure and unlock. I wasn't sure at first but it seems to be stable and stays put.

The front panel is also very easy to operate and seems to be self explanatory to me. The modes of cooking are very handy and has a delay timer too. This have been used in my kitchen almost everyday since I got it.

Handy extra storage solution for me and provides easy access too

I have always needed this extra storage in my car. I always find my cup holders to be filled with lots of other things like keys, sweets etc and this will provide me a place to store my other driving essentials without the cup holders overflowing and me ending up too distracted.

This is a set of 2 in a black leatherette outer and has studs on the top. It looks good and fits well in between the chair and the cup holders. I can also easily carry this bit if I need to swap cars. There is no closure on the top which gives me easy access to whatever I store in it. Being a girl, I would put handy facial tissues and wet wipes on it, lip gloss, hand lotion, cable charger, pens and my other bits I find essential for my travels.

I find this very handy, well made, good value for a set of 2 and I would find lots of uses for it.

Airy, sweat dries quickly and an excellent fit

This is an excellent working out vest. I am one of those who has celebrated far too much last Christmas and needs to shed them before summer. This vest is a perfect fit for me. I am normally a 12-14 and I have ordered the XL because I like my work out top to be baggy and not constraining. I would think this would still fit someone up to size 16-18 comfortably. The fabric is lice and light but not flimsy. I like that after my work out, it has soaked the sweat in and dried quickly. It didn't feel like a drowned rat for long. The design is also very good. The front neckline is discreet. The back is open and has a twisted top. I will be using this top a lot. The challenge is on!
